PREFACE. 



The Editor has endeavored to supply what he has for some 
time deemed a desideratum in our course of liberal study. 
As affording an introduction to the Greek Philosophy and 
Morals, no one of the Greek Classics is more valuable to the 
student than the Memorabilia of Xenophon ; while at the same 
time, on account of the matchless simplicity and elegance of 
its style and the variety and spirit of its matter, no one is more 
attractive. It will be found particularly useful to students in 
Theology or to those who expect to hecome such, exhibiting, 
as it does, with so much clearness and fidelity, the sentiments 
and opinions of one whose life and character was alight shin- 
ing in the midst of darkness, and also bringing under review 
the philosophy and morals of the most enlightened period of 
the pagan world. 

In his part of the labor the Editor has availed himself with- 
out scruple of all the aids which he could command, and has 
endeavored to meet what he supposes to be the wants of stu- 
dents in general, being guided, particularly in his attempts to 
exhibit the ideas which prevailed on philosophical subjects in 
the age of Socrates, somewhat by his recollections of his own 
difficulties when he himself was a pupil. 

As it regards the" grammatical notes and comments he has 
sought to excite the pupil to observe and to inquire for himself, 
rather than to relieve him from the necessity of labor. 

The Editor makes no pretensions in respect to the text. 
He has made the edition of Xenophon in the Bibliotheca Clas- 
sica published by Weigelius at Leipsic in 1819 under the su- 
perintendence of G. H. Schaefer, Prof, of Philosophy in the 



University of Leipsic, the basis of the present, comparing it 
diligently with the editions of Weiske, of Schneider published 
at Leipsic in 1829 under the editorial care of Bornemann, 
and the still more recent one of Dindorf, and admitting such 
alterations in the text of Schaefer as commended themselves 
to his judgment. Two or three passages not suitable to be 
read in college or school classes have been omitted. Living 
at a distance from the place of publication, he could not 
superintend in person the printing, but he has reposed great 
confidence in a press which has gained for itself a high repu- 
tation for taste and accuracy. 
Boiod. College, Sept. 1839. 



Having been called upon sooner than was anticipated to 
prepare for a new edition, the Editor has not done so much 
in this way as he intended. The errors of the former edi- 
tion have been corrected so far as they have been detected ; 
and it is hoped, that few remain to mar the text or perplex 
the reader. 

In this revision, the edition published by Tauchnitz in 1828 
under the care of Weise 5 has been compared. 

Boicd. College, Oct. 1840.

AnOM^IIMONETMATRN ; in the modern editions ren- 
dered, though not strictly, by the Latin word Memorabilia, in 
English rather loosely by the word Memoirs. They contain 
few details of personal history. They are, for the most part, 
recollections of Socrates, somewhat like the ana of our own 
times, embracing such of his conversations "with his disciples, 
together with such incidental notices of his manner of life, 
as might give a just view of his opinions and character, as al- 
so of his manner of teaching and of the kind of influence he 
exerted. They were collected by his friend and pupil for the 
purpose, as appears at the outset, of showing how unfounded 
were the charges which led to the condemnation and death of 
his revered master, and of clearing his character from the 
aspersions which had been cast upon it by the malice of 
enemies during the last twenty years of his life.

as a public speaker. It might be supposed that this trial 
would have been conducted before the court of the Areopa- 
gus which took especial cognizance of offences against re- 
ligion and morals, but it was brought before the Heliaea, the 
most numerous of the Athenian courts ; the number of dixaa- 
tccI, or jurors, varying from fifty individuals to six thousand. 
That at least five hundred were present at this trial may be 
inferred from a statement made by Diogenes Laertius, (comp. 
Diss, of M. de Bougainville, Mem. de l'Acad. des Insc. et Belles 
Lett. 18. 84.) It was doubtless well filled during a trial, which 
so deeply interested the feelings of the Athenians, who were, 
moreover, always ready for the duties of the dutaaiqg. — altos 
— nofai, i. e. deserved to be condemned to death by the city. 
For the construction see Mt. § 388. B. § 133, Note 2. S. 
§ 197. Comp. also 1. 2. 62. 64. — 'H—yocKpy. The offence 
alleged was written and put into the hands of the magistrate, 
(in causes like this, of the king Archon,) whose duty it was to 
bring the cause on for trial. Notice the two points in the 
charge against Socrates, of which the precise form is here 
given. 1. Impiety. 2. Corruption of the youth. The first 
is considered in the present chapter. — More than twenty 
years before, the charge of grossest impiety was fastened up- 
on Socrates by Aristophanes in the Clouds. Comp. NtyiXai 
248. Bekker, Lond. 1829, where the following language is

ferred to by Schneider, asserts that duipoviov is an adjective, 
and is not used substantively by Xenophon, Plato, or any of 
the writers of that time, to mean the Deity or God. In this 
and similar passages Schneider would supply at]pt?ov. Cice- 
ro de Div t 1. 54 thus understood it ; esse divinum quidquam,

quod daemonion appellat, cui semper pareat. In the defence 
of Socrates ascribed to Xenophon, § 12, this word is inter- 
preted by &£ov cpavi'j. So also by Plato, Apol. p. 31. d. Bip. 
where Socrates says, ffxol ds jovzo iariv ex nccidog uQid^iivov, 
qxavrj iig yiyvofiivij ' ij oxav yivi\iai, del ujiotqsjiel /xe jovtov o 
civ fiiUco TiQuixuv. The same idea is expressed subsequently 
(p. 40. b,) by to tov -d-toii arjuuov. The 8mii.6vi.ov of Socrates 
gave color to the accusation of Melitus, for by an artful change 
of the expression, he charged him with introducing xuivd dai- 
ixovict, which of course would be understood to mean new 
divinities. Sturz, however, renders this word by Deus, 
and refers to 1. 4. 2. 10. IV. 3. 14. 15. for the same 
usage, which accords with the common interpretations of this 
word. The truth seems to be, that the word was more am- 
biguous in its sense than 6 &sog, though used to mean the di- 
vine principle or Being, and Socrates might have designed to 
preserve such ambiguity in adopting this term. But how 
much did Socrates intend by this assertion ? Was his duu/io- 
viov one of the inferior orders of spirits, supposed to exert 
some influence in the affairs of the world — a good demon or 
genius who always attended him ? That such was not the 
case may be inferred from 1. 1. 3. 9. 1. 4. 18. and IV. 3. 
12. Or was it a mere fancy, as conjectured by Meiners, 
which led him, when ideas or notions occurred to him, which 
he could not account for or trace to their origin, to ascribe 
them to a divine influence ? Or was it, as Dr. Nares thinks, a 
species of divination which he used in common with others, 
calling the sign, whatever it was, by means of which he sup- 
posed intimations to be conveyed to him, a demon or divinity ? 
Or was it merely the result of sound judgment, enlightened 
by close observation and long experience of men and things, 
whose clear decisions shed light on his path, and which 
he, in his fondness for the enigmatical, represented as the 
teachings of a superior power ? The last of these opin- 



192 NOTES.— BOOK 1. CHAP. I. 

ions seems more consonant with the strong sense and free- 
dom from pretension and arrogance which characterized the 
son of Sophroniscus. Comp. Diss, of PAbbe Fraguier, Mem. 
de PAcad. 4. 360. Nevertheless, his strong assertion of such 
a monitor ever present with him, makes it difficult to pro- 
nounce with decision on the question. Schweighaeuser attri- 
butes to Socrates the belief, which accords well with his 
character for piety, that to those who devoutly seek guidance 
from above, it is vouchsafed in the hour of need, and hence 
he was accustomed to say that God was his counsellor and 
monitor. Comp. Bib. Rep. July, 1838, Theology of Socrates. 

3. tprffiaig, voices. 1. Those from some unknown source, 
and for that reason ascribed to divine agency ; e. g. that 
which is related by Livy 5. 32, to have announced to the 
Romans the approach of the Gauls, to which under the 
name of Aius Locutius, they erected a temple. 2. Those 
from mortals, as incidental expressions from which good 
or bad omens were derived. — avfi,j('Aoig, signs or portents, as 
thunder and lightning on the right or left. Such were the bees 
lighting on the lips of the infant Plato. So when the statues of 
Nero were found overturned, it was thought to portend the 
death of that tyrant. — zovg ununiavxaq. Omens were derived 
from the casual meeting of a man or animal. If a Roman 
met an Ethiopian, a dwarf, or a deformed man, he returned 
home immediately, and went no more abroad that day. The 
meeting of a serpent, a wolf, a fox, a dog, etc. presaged ill 
luck. To meet a lion, ants, or bees, was a good omen. Comp.

say, or by what necessity or fate, as the ancients did ; vis et 
ordo naturalis quoresfiunt, Ernesti. — Quibus naturae legibus, 
Sturz. The ancient philosophers ascribed the constitution of 
things to fate or necessity, by which was meant certain laws 
of matter, or properties inherent in it, which produce its phe- 
nomena independently of divine agency. How much they, 
as well as some of more modern date, perplexed themselves 
and their followers by unprofitable inquiries of this kind, is 
well known. Socrates endeavored to recall lovers of true 
philosophy from such speculations to that true wisdom which 
concerns the conduct of men. Compare § 12. 

As a prominent characteristic of Socrates, as a philosopher, 
is here first noticed and will often be brought to view, and as 
he distinguished himself particularly by his successful efforts 
to introduce a better system of philosophy, the following 

17 



194 NOTES. BOOK I. CHAP. I. 

statements, necessarily brief, are made to show the nature of 
the speculations which had employed the minds of the inquisi- 
tive, and the ideas on philosophical subjects which were cur- 
rent in his time. 

How much interest had been excited in such inquiries may 
be inferred from the number of distinguished names in this 
department of knowledge. Not to mention those of inferior 
note, Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenos, Pythagoras, Xeno- 
phanes, Heraclitus, Leucippus and Anaxagoras preceded So- 
crates, the earliest of them by a little more than a century. 
Democrilus of Abdera, Diogenes of Apollonia, Archelaus and 
Enipedocles were his contemporaries. All these philosophers 
engaged in speculations concerning the origin of things and 
the solution of the phenomena of nature. They sought to 
discover some elementary principle or principles from which 
all things originated. Tjiales, e. g. the founder of the Ionic 
school, 600 B. C. conceived water or humidity to be the ori- 
ginal element, and spirit the impulsive principle of the uni- 
verse. The attractive power of the magnet he called the soul 
of the magnet. This afforded him an illustration of his idea 
of the Deity, who, in like manner, pervades all things. The 
primary essence of all things Anaximander, the friend and 
companion of Thales, asserted to be infinite, comprehending 
all things, and divine. It is difficult to attach clear ideas to 
this statement, but it may be regarded as an effort of the human 
mind to grasp at a notion of an eternal, infinite, unchangea- 
ble cause of being. He was the author of the celebrated axi- 
om which long exerted a great influence in the Greek schools 
of philosophy, ex nikilo nihil Jit. He attempted to give an 
account of the origin of the celestial bodies and of man. 
Anaximejnes, the pupil of Anaximander, 557 B. C, attempt- 
ing to develope more fully the idea of an infinite substance, sug- 
gested by his master, taught that the air is the primitive element. 
This, because it is diffused through nature and is perpetually 



NOTES. — BOOK I. CHAP. I. 195 

active, he held to be God. In other words, the air is a subtle 
ether animated with a divine principle, and thus becomes the 
origin of all beings. Anaxagoras, 500 B. C, first taught phi- 
losophy in Athens, which had fled from its home in the Greek 
colonies of Ionia. Socrates was among his pupils, and Peri- 
cles, Euripides and Phidias were his intimate friends. He 
distinguished himself particularly, by the first distinct, explicit 
statement of the doctrine of a supreme Intelligence, the au- 
thor of the universe. He adopted the principle, ex niliilo ni- 
hil Jit, but ascribed the formation of the universe out of a cha- 
otic mass to an intelligent, eternal, infinite mind, whence he 
received the appellation °0 Nov?. To exhibit the merit of 
Anaxagoras, in regard to this doctrine, as compared with pre- 
ceding philosophers, De Gerando uses the following striking 
and beautiful illustration. The sun at its rising confounds it- 
self with the horizon — with the objects which it enlightens ; 
such was the notion of a. First Cause in the infancy of human 
reason. This same sun, as it advances, disengages itself, be- 
comes isolated, and-soon reigns sole monarch of the highest 
heavens ; such became the idea of a First Cause in the doc- 
trine of Anaxagoras. (Histoire,etc. 1. 362.) Anaxagoras was 
much inclined to the study of physics, and attempted to ex- 
plain on physical principles the formation of plants and ani- 
mals and of the heavenly bodies, which drew upon him the 
charge of impiety, as he maintained opinions much in ad- 
vance of his age. Pythagoras, 584 B. C, one of the great 
masters of the human mind, founded a school at Crotona in 
Italy. His preeminent intellectual powers and high attain- 
ments in science, the peculiar discipline of his sect, which 
was ascetic in a high degree, aided by the mysticism he 
threw around his doctrines and his manner of life, invested 
his name with peculiar veneration both among the Greeks 
and the Romans. It is difficult to state with precision the doc- 
trines really held by Pythagoras, and as he and his followers

illustrated them by numbers, or rather conveyed them by 
mathematical symbols, it is still more difficult to attach definite 
ideas to the language of the Pythagorean philosophy. Their 
speculations concerning the material universe were extremely 
fanciful, as an example of which the notion of the music of the 
spheres may be mentioned. (Clearly stated, Fiske's Manual, 
235). The Eleatic school of philosophy founded by Xeno- 
phanes, 536 B. C, so called from Elea in Ital} r , its original 
seat, was flourishing when Socrates lived, and is referred to 
in this work. Parmenides, Melissus and Zeno were its 
most distinguished supporters. This sect, discarding all expe- 
rience and the study of nature, sought to discover by reason- 
ing a priori the essence of things, and to solve the question 
how things could begin to exist, and how, having begun to exist, 
they could be subjected to revolution and change. Beginning 
with the principle ex nihilo nihil fil, they held all things to be im- 
mutable and eternal. God is one and immutable. All nature is 
one and incapable of change. In nature, there is no real produc- 
tion, decay or change. Vain and fruitless speculations, it would 
seem, and yet the doctrines of the Eleatic school have ex- 
erted an important influence in the world, and have attracted 
in modern times the serious attention of philosophers. This 
sect was the first to form a theory of human knowledge. Re- 
jecting the evidence of the senses, they referred all knowledge 
to the mind itself. The changes and motions which we no- 
tice, in short all things which our senses present to us, exist 
only in appearance. It was a species of idealism, and in it we 
can perceive the first suggestion of views which have become 
familiar in our own times. In the hands of some of the followers 
of Xenophanes, as it has been in modern times, the tendency 
of these doctrines was to unlimited skepticism. Heraclitu-s 
improved on the doctrine of the Eleatic school. Assuming 
fire to be the elemental principle, he maintained the universe 
to be the work neither of gods nor men, but a fire continu-

ally kept alive, but with alternations of decay and resuscitation 
according to certain laws. He appears to have had some no- 
tions of general, universal laws controlling the operations of 
nature. Fate, in his view, was nothing but the harmonious 
general law which reigns throughout the universe, or rather 
that intelligent power whence this law emanates. From the 
incomprehensible character of his discourses he received the 
name of 2xoiuvoq. It was he, of whom Socrates thus ex- 
pressed his admiration : "What I comprehend in him appears 
excellent ; it is then probable, that what I do not comprehend 
is equally excellent." Leucippus, 500 B. C, and DemocfvI- 
tus are important names in the history of philosophy, as be- 
ing the founders of the Atomic or Corpuscular system among 
the Greeks, afterwards adopted and more fully developed by 
Epicurus. The former was the first avowed and systematic 
materialist known in the history of philosophy. According 
to this system the elementary principles of all things are 
atoms. The soul is nothing but a mass of rounded atoms, 
and all phenomena, whether natural or spiritual, are ex- 
plained by the laws of matter and motion without the inter- 
vention of an intelligent cause. Archelaus, 460 B.C., a 
preceptor of Socrates, inculcated a doctrine subversive of 
morals, in later times advanced by Hobbes, that our ideas of 
right and wrong are conventional and not founded in nature. 
It may be added, that the philosophers, generally, made great 
account of dreams and omens. Pythagoras and his followers 
regarded the demons, an intermediate race between gods and 
men, as exerting an important agency in dreams and divina- 
tion. 

Most of the philosophers who have been mentioned, devoted 
themselves more or less to the study of nature. Thales, Py- 
thagoras, Anaxagoras, and Democritus, as is well known, 
were particularly distinguished for their researches in mathe- 
matical and physical science, All made important contribu-

tions to the advancement of the human mind. But it is mani- 
fest, that they were occupied, for the most part, by fruitless 
speculations on the origin and causes of things. Placing a 
lo\v value on facts and experiments, they attempted by medi- 
tation to unfold those mysteries of nature and providence, 
which will ever baffle the scrutiny of man. As regards the 
conduct of human life, they uttered many valuable precepts, 
but established no principles. By some of them, indeed, doc- 
trines were promulgated which undermine the foundations of 
morals and social welfare. 

The preceding statements show how much interest had 
been excited in Greece in philosophical inquiries. Besides 
the peculiar characteristics of the Athenians which prepared 
them to listen with eagerness to such speculations, the fact 
that, in consequence of political troubles, the followers' of 
the Ionic, Eleatic, and Pythagorean schools had all fled from 
their respective homes in other lands and taken refuge in 
Athens, at once made this city the school of philosophy for 
that age, and awakened a general interest in philosophical in- 
quiries and a passion for displays of dialectic skill unknown 
in any other city of that or any period. But at this time, 
it should be remarked, Athens had begun to degenerate 
from the virtue of the age of Aristides. It had suffered a po- 
litical revolution, which, with other causes, had effected a 
change in the political and social character of the people. 
The influence of such changes was. likely to be felt in the 
schools of philosophy, in which various and often the most 
contradictory theories had been advanced, without anything 
being settled. In the midst of the greatest incertitude, the 
minds of men were easily taken with whatever had the show 
of philosophy. The circumstances of this period, then, were 
peculiarly favorable for the rise of a class of teachers, who, 
destitute of real love of philosophy, yet laying claim to the 
possession of it, set themselves up as instructors in eloquence

and all learning, and arrogated to themselves the imposing ti- 
tle of aocptcrttti, as if they only possessed the treasures of wis- 
dom. Combining with considerable attainment great facility 
in discourse a'nd acuteness in dialectics, they were well fitted 
to gain ascendancy over the Grecian mind. They arose 
to great reputation and influence during the age of Socrates, 
and afterwards sunk into contempt through his instrumentali- 
ty. As they are referred to in the passage which has led to 
the preceding sketch of philosophy, as well as elsewhere in 
this treatise, and as the character and merits of Socrates, as a 
philosopher, cannot be appreciated without some clear notions 
of them, they demand particular notice in this connexion. 

The Sophists do not constitute a separate school, so much 
as a distinct class in the history of Grecian philosophy. They 
began to attract notice when Socrates first turned his attention 
to philosophy, about 440 B. C, and soon became numerous 
and influential. They derived their appellation ano jov aocp'l- 
&iv, from their professing to teach wisdom, by which was 
meant knowledge in general. As it was deemed essential to 
be able to discuss subjects with facility, the word voyLa in- 
cluded the faculty of speaking, as well as general learning; 
and the teachers of wisdom were also teachers of eloquence. 
Hanc cogitandi pronuntiandique rationem vimque dicendi ve- 
teres Graeci sapientiaro nominibant. (Cic. de Orat. 3. 15. 
Comp. Isoc. Panegyr. Mori Annot.) Degerando distinguishes 
them into two classes ; the one essentially rhetoricians, the 
other more especially devoted to dialectics. Few of them, 
however, devoted themselves to philosophy properly so called, 
but were, as the same writer terms them, a sort of itinerant 
professors, who taught at once all the arts. Protagoras of 
Abdera, Gorgias of Leontium, and Prodicus of Cos first ap- 
peared with distinction as Sophists, and by the charms of 
their eloquence, more specious, it would seem, than founded 
on the principles of a just taste, acquired great popularity to

themselves, and to the new profession they had assumed. 
Gorgias, in particular, made so successful a display of his 
powers at Athens and at the public games of Greece, that a 
golden statue was erected to his honor at Delphi. 

With much true talent and considerable acquirement, the 
Sophists combined much of pretension and display. Protago- 
ras, for example, proclaimed, that he could teach that kind of 
knowledge which was able to confound right and wrong, and 
make the worse appear the better cause. Hippias of Elis, 
(referred to Cic. de Orat. 3. 32,) at the Olympic games, 
boasted in the presence of assembled Greece, that there was 
nothing in any science or art which he did not know. How 
much the Greeks were captivated by such pretenders, may 
be inferred from the following passage of Aristophanes in the 
Clouds, taken from the scene in which the Chorus endeavors 
to persuade Strepsiades to become a Sophist by showing him 
what consequence it will give him in the world. The version 
of Mr. Cumberland is used, though too legal a turn is given 
to the passage. 

< ; Then shall your doors lie thronged 
Willi clients waiting for your coming forth, 
All eager to consult you, pressing all 
To catch a word from you, with abstracts, briefs, 
And cases ready drawn for your opinion." 

Aristoph. Bekkek, Lond. 1B2D, 4(54. 

The Sophists were the first who assumed the office of pro- 
fessed teachers of wisdom with a compensation for their ser- 
vices. In this treatise, 1.2.1. Socrates censures this teach- 
ing for hire as a departure from the disinterestedness and 
dignity of pure philosophy. How it was regarded by Aristo- 
tle may be inferred from his definition of a Sophist : xgrjfia- 
riatrjg ano cpaivoixivrjg aocpiug, akt ovx ovarjg, one who gets his 
living., etc. It was one of the causes of the degeneracy 
which attached to them as a class. Being resorted to by

youth of the wealthiest and most powerful families, who at- 
tended upon their instructions, more to prepare themselves to 
play a successful part in public affairs, than to acquire a 
sound and healthful discipline, instead of directing and con- 
trolling their pupils, they doubtless, as Socrates more than in- 
sinuates 1. 2. 6, were subservient to them. They often, in- 
deed, amassed considerable wealth. Gorgias received one 
hundred minae from each of his pupils, about $1700. Pro- 
tagoras was said to have gained more from his instructions as 
a Sophist, than Phidias and ten sculptors beside, by the emolu- 
ments of their art. 

By. their instructions in rhetoric, grammar, and moral and 
political science, aided by their great popularity and unbound- 
ed influence, the Sophists rendered important service to learn- 
ing, and yet more by their agency in quickening the mind of 
their age. Yet by the prostitution of their talents to conceit- 
ed pretension and a vain display, and in consequence of the 
principles which many of them avowed, and their profligate 
lives, as a class, they soon became an object of scorn and 
alarm to the truly wise ; with how much reason may. be in- 
ferred from the following statements. To excite admiration, 
or for the sake of gain, they affirmed and maintained, with 
the utmost effrontery, the most extravagant notions and most 
infamous doctrines, and by verbal quibbling and dialectic sub- 
tleties, they contrived to perplex their hearers, while they ac- 
quired the reputation of acuteness and skill themselves. 
Professing to be wise they became fools, and hence the name 
of Sophist, once synonymous with that of wise man, has from 
their time been used to denote one who strives by ingenious 
argument to bewilder and lead astray. The boast of Prota- 
goras, that he could confound the distinctions between right 
and wrong, and make the worse appear the better cause, has 
been adverted to. In the sceptical tendency of his doctrines, 
a resemblance has been remarked between him and Hume, 



202 NOTES. — BOOK I. CHAP. I. 

which of itself may show, that he was elevated much above 
the crowd of Sophists whose names perished with themselves. 
He was banished from Athens for denying the existence of 
the gods, and his works were burnt in the market place. 
Gorgias asserted the following propositions, which he at-, 
•tempted to demonstrate by subtle reasoning: 1. That no- 
thing exists. 2. If anything does exist it cannot be known. 
3. Could it be known, it could not be explained by words. 
Diagoras openly denied the existence of the gods. Critias, 
the enemy of Socrates, alluded to Mem. 1. 2. 12, etc. was al- 
so numbered among the Atheists, and ascribed the origin of 
religion to political considerations. Hippias asserted, that 
laws owe their origin to weak and pusillanimous men, and 
that every man of an elevated mind ought to throw off the 
yoke when he can. It is manifest from all that we can gather 
concerning the Sophists, tha.t their influence was to break up 
the foundations of human belief, social order and happiness. 

How they were regarded by the best men may be collect- 
ed from the writings of the time. Among the works of Iso- 
cratcs.is found a discourse v.axu tuiv aoqumuv, which seems 
to be but a procemium of a larger treatise, designed to ex- 
pose their false pretensions and mercenary character. Plato 
also in his Protagoras, as well as elsewhere, with much humor 
and with admirable effect, exposes their empty pretension and 
their want of principle. Xenophon in others of his works, as 
well as in the treatise before us, conveys the same general 
impression of their character and influence. The bitter sar- 
casm implied in the language of Aristotle, above cited, shows 
his estimation of them, and he elsewhere exposes their falla- 
cious and quibbling mode of argumentation. Aristophanes 
exerted his unrivalled powers against them and poured upon 
them an overwhelming torrent of raillery. Their vain and 
arrogant display, their entire want of principle and unblush- 
ing impiety he pourtrays with great energy and with most

caustic wil. His comedy of the Clouds did more than any- 
thing else to expose their worthlessness and make them 
odious. 

One great object with Socrates, as we shall have frequent 
occasion to notice in the sequel, was to counteract the per- 
nicious influence of the Sophists over the youth of Athens. 
He succeeded to a degree that may well surprise us, when we 
think of their great numbers and unbounded popularity. 
Through his agency and that of his followers, philosophy was 
rescued from the degradation into which it had fallen through 
their means. Although it ever retained much of the subtle- 
ties of the Sophists, yet separated from the studies of elo- 
quence, it assumed a new aspect, and was cultivated by the 
first minds;, so that Socrates, on this account, may be num- 
bered among the most able and most successful masters of 
the human reason, and among the greatest benefactors of his 
race. Beyond any of his predecessors he seemed to have 
discerned the limits of the human understanding, (comp. 1. 1. 
13). At least, he endeavored to lead men to renounce futile 
speculation, or to search for truth within our reach, and which 
may be of practical use in the concerns of life.

quibbling' and subtlety of the ancient logic. Brucker (Hist, of 
Phil.,) suggests, that he understood the term motion metaphy- 
sically, and only meant, that there is no such thing in nature as 
passing from nonentity to entity or the reverse. Perhaps, he 
also remarks, the disputes among the ancients concerning 
motion, like many other metaphysical contests, were mere 
combats in the dark, for want .of settling at the outset the 
meaning of terms. By the term motion they seem more 
commonly to have meant change of nature, than change of 
place. Such was the subtlety of Zeno's logic, that Isocrates 
attributes to him the power of demonstrating, that the same 
thing is at once possible and impossible. — xoig de ovx av yivi-

Parmenides taught, that there is in nature no real production, 
decay, or change. So also Melissus, whose opinions are thus 
stated by Tennemann. What really exists can neither be 
produced or perish. It exists without having either beginning 
or end ; infinite and consequently one, invariable, not com- 
posed of parts and indivisible; which doctrine implies a de- 
nial of the existence of bodies and of the dimensions of space.

the object and nature of the principle, on which the ancient 
philosophers based their doctrines: De nihilo nihil in nihilum 
nil posse reverti; whence, he remarks, was deduced another 
fundamental principle, that of the Eleatic school, as he inter- 
prets it : " that there are neither any new productions, nor de- 
structions of any substances of real entities."

aim first of all after what may be of practical utilily to man. 
When this object has been gained and the subject been ex- 
hausted, men may, if they choose, speculate on subjects above 
them, but not till then. The well known eulogium of Cicero 
on the character of Socrates as a philosopher, deserves a place 
here : Socrates autem primus philosophorum devocavit e 
coelo et in urbibus collocavit et in domos etiam introduxit et 
coegit de vita et moribus rebusque bonis et malis quaerere.

In common acceptation, as applied to men, varying of course 
according to the standard of the person using it, it denotes 
men of high standing in the community. As used by Socrates, 
it generally denotes moral qualities. Proprie dicitur sic, ut

Allusion has been made to the effect of The Clouds of Aristo-

with the people. That a law prohibiting the professors of wis- 
dom from teaching the art of reasoning or of discussion could, 
have been passed, will not be surprising when we consider, 
that a common notion probably prevailed, derived from the 
representations of their enemies, that their object was to teach 
a sort of quibbling logic, which would perplex and confound ;

1. The preceding chapter contains statements designed to 
show the influence of his teaching and example upon those 
who resorted to him, in regard to religion and purity of life. It 
had however been said by some, that his instructions were of 
no avail to make men better. The author now proceeds to 
relate some of his discourses, in which he did manifestly pro- 
duce an impression favorable to religion and virtue. v.olv.<7Tr { -

5. We have in the sequel a striking contrast exhibited by 
Socrates to the other philosophers of his own and preceding 
times. While they sought to discover the elementary princi- 
ples and to explain the formation of the animal system, he 
endeavored to detect the adaptedness of its several parts to 
their several uses, and thus to unfold marks of design and 
proofs of an intelligent cause. The argument, though fa- 



214 NOTES. — BOOK I. CHAP'. IV. 

miliar to us, is worthy of notice, because Socrates was the 
first to pursue this mode of investigation and reasoning to any 
extent, and to apply it for the religious benefit of others. The 
argument is pursued into more particulars in Cicero de Nat.

9. Ma AC ov yatJ oow. There is difficulty in this passage. 
Does Ma Ala imply affirmation, or denial ? B. § 149, states 
that /.id alone, i. e. without ov or y.ul, serves merely as a nega- 
tive ; so also the Index Graecitatis, and the common gram- 
mars. Sturz (Lex. Xen.), on the contrary, asserts, that /u« af- 
firms or denies, only as it is connected with the particles xai 
and or. The negative particle is, however, sometimes omit- 
ted ; but in such cases it may be readily supplied from the 
connection. But sometimes the affirmative particle is omitted. 
The text he regards as one instance of such usage. Other 
instances are 3. 4. 3. Cyrop. 8. 3. 45. He cites other passa- 
ges in which it has an affirmative power, but in these cases it 
seems better to regard it as a mere form of oath, the affirma- 
tion being entirely independent of it. Hoogeveen also main- 
tains its affirmative power in a few cases, but in those which 
he cites, it seems more simple to view it as a mere form of 
adjuration. Ernesti, Annot. on 3. 13. 3, thus remarks : Ne- 
que enim, ut vulgo existimant, fia rov Alu per se potest vim 
negandi aut affirmandi habere, sed earn, aut adjectis diserte, 
aut iotellectis particulis ov et vui, accipit. 



NOTES. — BOOK I. CHAP. IV. 215 

The most correct statement, therefore, in respect to this 
phrase without its adjuncts, seems to be, that it is most fre- 
quently thus used, where negation is designed, but is also 
sometimes used, where affirmation is intended, which can be 
determined only by the connection. As to the particular case 
before us, the version of Leunclavius (Simpson. Oxon. 1759,) 
gives the affirmative force to the t uu ; so also that of Bessari- 
on. Bornemann ad loc. thinks that here, as also 3. 4. 3 and 
Cyrop. 8. 3. 45, the connection requires an affirmative power 
with some doubt or hesitation implied. The ydg assigns a 
reason for what is said before. If fin Jlahe rendered nega- 
tively, the ellipsis to be supplied is a harsh one. The reply 
of Socrates, moreover, proceeds on the supposition that Aris- 
todemus denied the existence of a supreme intelligence, and 
of course implies an affirmation at this point. But how are 
we to reconcile with this, the decisive tone with which Aris- 
todemus repels the intimation that he maintained such a doc- 
trine ? Comp. §10. May it not be, that he there changes his 
ground ? He gives up his denial of the existence of a God, 
but cannot receive the doctrine of a special providence. The 
gods are too exalted to trouble themselves with human inte- 
rests or concerns, and Socrates then adduces proofs of a 
special design on the part of the gods to make provision for 
the comfort and convenience of man. 

Heindorf proposes another reading : Ma AC • alt ou yag, 
in which case /u«, according to the common usage, (comp. 
Hoogeveen 6,) may imply a negative. No I do not think 
so, but I have difficulties, for, etc. This is the common way 
of supplying the ellipsis after alia followed by yaq.

differing only in excellence from that of brutes ; for, that they 
had souls as well as men, was not called in question. Socra- 
tes regarded the soul as partaking in some sense of the divine 
nature, comp. 4. 3. 14. The separate existence of the soul is

vanced in years and wisdom, and especially in proportion as 
men in society, — in states and nations, have become more 
ancient and enlightened, they pay more reverence to divine 
things. How can this be accounted for except by admitting 
the just claims of the deity ? It must be a divine ordinance 
engraven on the mind of man, which none can disregard.

to show that the doctrine of an overruling providence is not 
incredible, is striking and beautiful, and more worthy of no- 
tice on account of the time when it was uttered., Socrates 
appears to have had clear views of a Supreme Ruler of all 
things ; an idea which had been advanced before, though not 
so fully developed, by Anaxagoras. The eye of God beholds

all things ; his intelligence pervades the universe ; his watch- 
ful care embraces all beings and events. If this passage be 
compared with 4. 3. 13, we shall perceive good reason to be- 
lieve, that Socrates had clear views of one Supreme Intelli- 
gence. Still there is some doubt thrown over the subject by 
expressions which imply the existence of a number of deities. 
Comp. 1. 1. 19. Cicero alludes to this want of precision in 
the language of Socrates : Facit enim (Xenophon) in iis quae 
Socrate dicta retulit, Socratem disputantem — modo unum, 
turn autem plures Deos. De Nat. Deor. 1. 12. But a simi- 
lar want of precision is observed in the writings of Plato, who 
doubtless had a clear conception of a Supreme Intelligence. 
What the notions of Socrates were in regard to inferior dei- 
ties cannot be determined ; but that he had well established 
notions of a Supreme Being may be safely inferred from this 
and other passages of this treatise. 

The theology of Socrates is briefly and clearly discussed 
by Schvveighaeuser, Bib. Repos. No. 31. The student will 
find the whole subject of the belief of the ancient philosophers 
in the existence of God discussed with great learning and 
ability in Cudworth's Intellectual System, Book I. Chap. I, 
where the author shows, that they generally had an idea of 
an incorporeal, eternal, intelligent Being. He also adduces 
a vast array of facts from the whole compass of ancient learn- 
ing to show, that the apparent multiplicity of gods was, in gen- 
eral, a way of representing or embodying the different attri- 
butes of the one Supreme Deity, or that the gods, as they 
were called, were created and subordinate to the supreme God 
and were his ministers. 1. 713. The conclusion to which he 
arrives, may be found Vol. I. 697 — 701, Gould & Newman, 
1837. The opinions of Socrates are examined, 1. 530, also 
Enfield's Brucker 1. 175. The subject is also briefly and 
clearly stated in Appleton's Works ; where the author ar- 
gues with great force, that there was in the generality of 
minds a belief in a multitude of gods.

as was doubtless the case with Socrates, in order to reprove the 
luxury and effeminacy of the times ; others, from a foolish af- 
fectation of superior virtue and self-command. Individuals 
also of rank and office did the same. We are informed by 
Plutarch, that Cato of Utica, when Praelor, often ascended the

of Phocion, of Lycurgus the orator, and Agesilaus. But 
these sects of philosophers, and the individuals named, were 
of a subsequent period. It is probable, that instances of such 
austerity had been comparatively rare before Socrates set the 
example. Chaerephon, the particular friend of Socrates, was 
so pale from close study and meditation, that in the Comedy 
of the Birds he received the nickname of The Bat.

cenditur tectus." Neither of these interpretations seems na- 
tural or probable. The best is that of Schneider, which he 
fortifies by passages from Antyllus, a physician : " fulcra di- 
agonalia perdibus lecti subjecti, ita ut ' asicrfiog,'' concussio lecti,

aa, diapdklia&ai, etc. The irony of Socrates embraces more 
than is usually included in our term. It consists in a certain 
simplicity of manner, which often concealed beneath it se- 
vere sarcasm, and was affected in order to throw his antago- 
nist off' his guard. He employed it much against the Sophists, 
as his most powerful weapon, with which to meet their con- 
summate address in dialectics. Examples of its use will oc- 
cur. Tennemann calls it affected ignorance, which agrees 
well with the general view in the valuable dissertation on the

12. x°Q°S "?• The word x<>Q°s m its primary signification 
means a dance. A company of persons who sung a sacred 
hymn in praise of some deity, accompanied with dancing, 
was called a chorus. The Athenians were accustomed to 
send every year a solemn embassy or chorus to the temple of 
Apollo at Delos, to offer a sacrifice and celebrate a festival in 
honor of the gods. It was during this festival that Socrates 
was condemned, and as it was unlawful to put any one to 
death during the absence of the vessel which bore the sacred 
chorus, he lay in prison several days before the sentence was 
executed. Comp. Plato, Phaed. ad init. The chorusses of 
the Athenians in general were not surpassed by those of any 
other city, either in the personal beauty of those who com- 
posed them, or the splendor of their appointment. Besides 
this annual chorus sent to Delos, a similar one was sent eve- 
ry five years, which We iske thinks is here referred to. There 
was besides, the chorus of the drama, which was noted for 
the costliness and splendor of its array, and constituted the 
most imposing part of the theatrical exhibitions. — ilavdyla. 
Reference is here had to the avavd^lag uydtv, one of the con- 
tests during the Panathenaea, in which those who took a part 
gave proof of their manly strength and vigor. The &aXloq>6— 
got in this festival were selected on account of their manly 
beauty. Comp. Potter, 1. 452. Eschenburg's Manual, trans- 
lated by Fiske, p. 495. 

13. dxpiovut. The musical contests of the. Athenians are 
well known. — An important principle is. here stated. Athens 
was not indebted for her preeminence above the other Gre- 
cian states to native genius, so much as to culture and emu- 
lation.

exceptions, were liable to do military duly and were enrolled 
in a public record. In saying therefore, that he had served 
iy. xaTuloyov, was implied, that he had always done military 
duty from the time of his enrollment. He had also served, 
it appears, as a foot soldier, whilst Antisthenes belonged to 
the cavalry, who were of the more wealthy families and their 
service was less burdensome. 

3. xsxoojj/rjHE. He was called x°QW°S wno furnished at his 
own expense a -/ogoq for the theatrical exhibitions. The 
XOQrjyia was one of the regular Xeixovgylcu, (Comp. 11. 7. 6.) 
and consisted in providing at one's own expense a teacher to 
instruct the chorus in its part, in procuring the performers 
and maintaining them during the period of their instruction, 
in furnishing their dresses, often costly, and their golden 
crowns and their masks, together with other incidental ex- 
penses. That the duty did not extend to the preparation of 
the whole dramatic performance, is shown by Boeckh. See 
on the whole subject, Pub. Econ. of Athens, 2. 207, etc. As 
it was, their tax was very onerous.

Chapter VI. 



This chapter affords a good example of the peculiar hu- 
mor of Socrates. In exposing the shallowness and ignorance 
of a beardless aspirant after political influence, he employs 
the most delicate, yet efficient raillery. — This chapter may 
give us some idea of what was requisite to prepare a man for 
public life in Athens.

the one mentioned below, the father of Charmidas, was an un- 
cle. — o vdin co hxooiv i'xrj ytyovcog. Compare the case of Alci-

bates of the general assembly, though it admits of doubt 
whether they were allowed to vote at so early an age. — ttuv-

6. Socrates here speaks contemptuously of the General 
Assembly. Such sentiments, it is probable, were not unfre- 
quently expressed by him, and doubtless excited the hostility 
of the people against the philosopher, and thus, rather than his 
religious opinions, caused his condemnation. — nejaftaUcusvot,

his replies to the captious questions of the Sophists consulted 
less his own reputation for acuteness, than the advantage of

throw light on this passage : " Aedibus sacris, quorum deo-

conspiciatur, arae distribuantur." uyvwg sxovzag. A retired 
place for their temples was preferable, that the worshippers 
might be free from pollution, which might easily be con- 
tracted in the more frequented parts of the city. Schiitz, as 
cited by Schneider. 



Chapter IX. 

The design of the author stated at the beginning of the pre- 
ceding chapter is pursued in this. By his replies to Aristip- 
pus or some other Sophist, Socrates endeavors to convey use- 
ful instruction to those who were around. This is one of the 
most valuable chapters in the treatise, on account of the light 
it throws on the character of his moral philosophy.

cannot settle the reading. Bornemann includes aocpov rs xal

hat, sed judicabat eu?n, qui pulchra et honesta cognosceret, Us

rion, who regards these words as a sound reading : Qui enim 
bona atque honesta sciret ad utendum Us, ac turpia cognosce- 
ret ut ab Us abstineret, sapientem ac moderation esse judica*

5. No one is wise or possesses true knowledge, who is not 
virtuous. He who knows what is right practises it. Comp. 
IV. 6. 4. Such was the doctrine of Socrates, and some of his 
leading principles are stated in this and the following sections. 
The reasoning in this passage, which is very concisely stated, 
is designed to establish the doctrine, that wisdom and virtue 
are-the same, and it may be reduced to the following points : 

Whatsoever things are just and virtuous are honorable and 
good. 

Those who know what is just and virtuous, prefer and prac- 
tise it ; and the converse. 

But the wise practise what is honorable and good, (forthey 
know them,) and the converse. 

Since, therefore, what- is just and honorable and good is al- 
so virtuous, and the wise practise what is virtuous : 

Therefore, virtue and wisdom are the same. 
Or it may be reduced into the following syllogistic form : 

Those who know what is honorable and good prefer and 
practise it. 



JTOTES. BOOK III. CHAP. X. 241 

The wise know what is honorable and good ; 

Therefore, the wise practise what is honorable and good. 

But what is honorable and good is virtue. 

The wise practise what is honorable and good ; 

Therefore the wise practise virtue. 

But what the wise practise is wisdom. 

The wise practise virtue and justice. 

Therefore, virtue and justice is wisdom.

who are doing something useful. For a similar train of

In the conversation here recorded, Parrhasius seems to

Chapter III. 



1. The instructions of this pagan philosopher rebuke those 
who, at this period of light, would discard religious influence 
from our institutions. Without a pure morality, regulation of 
the desires and of the outward life, (for such in its widest sense 
is the import of amcpgoavvrj, as here used,) Socrates thought 
knowledge rather an evil than a good, and the true foundation 
of morality he judged to be right notions respecting the gods, 
or religion. But what a foundation was that laid by pa- 
ganism ! 

As to the reasoning in this chapter it may be remarked, 
that while in Book I. Chap. 4, the existence and perfections 
of the Deity are argued from the indications of contrivance 
which are manifest in his works, in this chapter the attention 
is more particularly directed to the proofs of the divine be- 
nevolence.

how little authority the precepts of pagan wisdom were 
clothed is manifest. It dared not openly and without com- 
promise to assail the superstition of the times. However it 
might contemn the worship in which men confided, it still di- 
rected the inquirers after truth to worship according to the 
laws of the country. It will be noticed how important the state- 
ment here made was in its bearing on the charges brought 
against Socrates. 



C h after IV. 

In this chapter Socrates, in opposition to the Sophists who 
would confound all moral distinctions, endeavors to show that 
there is such a thing as right and wrong, even independently 
of human laws, and refers distinctly to the laws of conscience 
written on every man's heart.

Schneider and Weiske understand this phrase to mean execut-

an accurate measurement or survey ; as e. g. the division of a 
parcel of land among several owners. Others interpret it, 
the laying out of a piece of work, which Sturz prefers. 

3. Socrates did not contemn science, for he pursued scien- 
tific studies himself with ardor under Archelaus and Theodo- 
rus, the latter of whom taught him Geometry. It is expressly 
stated more than once in the text, that he himself was not un- 
skilled in the most abstruse scientific investigations of the 
time. Indeed, one of the most diverting scenes in the Clouds 
is that in which the author exposes to ridicule the mathemati- 
cal and astronomical pursuits of the school of Socrates. Comp. 
ZVjqD. 182 et seq. It is not improbable, that this chapter of the 
Memorabilia was designed to turn the edge of this ridicule by 
showing, that Socrates, however fond he was of such pursuits, 
nevertheless did not place an undue estimate upon them, and 
that the truly useful, that which would best promote the high- 
est interests of man, had the first place in his regard. He 
was far from cherishing contempt for science, but he sought 
to dissuade his followers from engaging in the idle specula- 
tions of the day. Socrates mihi videtur, id quod constat inter 
omnes, primus a rebus occultis et ab ipsa natura involutis, in

tence. — zqyov slvui, i. e. it was difficult. 



Chapter VIII. 

The statement at the close of the preceding chapter natu- 
rally suggests the subject of this. It might be said that Socra- 
tes himself afforded an example of the inutility of the art of 
divination. His demon did not counsel him when he most 
needed guidance. The design of the author then is to show, 
that the circumstances connected with the death of Socrates 
were so ordered as to be favorable to him rather than adverse. 
He could not have lived much longer in any event ; and be- 
sides, his trial and execution afforded him an opportunity of 
displaying high traits of character.

Critics are much perplexed by the marks of interpolation 
they discover in this chapter. Dindorf regards as supposititious 
§§ 1 — 3. Bornemann is strongly inclined to cancel §§ 3 — 11 
to the words e t uol /jzv Si]. Schneider doubts the genuineness 
of several parts as well as the integrity of the text in others. 
There is indeed a striking similarity between some passages 
and the Apology of Socrates. Bornemann thinks that the 
Apology was written before the Memorabilia, so that it is not 
strange if for the more full exhibition of the character of 
Socrates at this most trying period of his life, he should intro- 
duce large quotations from the previous work. But Schnei- 
der decidedly rejects the Apology. The student, however, 
cannot but find this closing chapter of the Memorabilia deep- 
ly interesting. The concluding passage is a fit peroration of 
such a work, a beautiful summing up of those moral excel- 
lencies, which it is the main object of the author throughout 
to set forth for the admiration of mankind.
